"Great experience with Rene' Advanced Drywall. Got what I felt was a fair price for the drywall repairs I needed done. Rene came by and made the repairs in an hour! The job was handled very professionally and Rene was a pleasure to work with. I'm very satisfied with the results, and there is no doubt in my mind about recommending him to others or calling him again for another job. Thank you!""

"Vlad gave me a very reasonable estimate for a project to repair plaster, install drywall, and paint the walls around my house.. His team was always on time and did a great job of keeping the house clean while they were working and cleanup afterwards. I hope to use them again soon for additional projects in the future."

"Benny arrived when he said he would and worked to keep pace with his timeline. He would arrive at 9 and not leave till 7 if that’s what needed to be done. He installed drywall and redid electrical work and did a wonderful job. Finished it off by painting, which was great as well. Overall happy with the work done. Don’t mind the doors, window, or rug in the pictures. They’re being redone as well."

"Bryan’s team did an excellent job painting both the walls & woodwork in our den, kitchen, powder room & laundry room. Did great with the wall prep, including skim coating the powder room, where we had them remove the wallpaper. Both team members were courteous and easy to work with. Worked cleanly. Price for the job was very fair. We would definitely recommend Bryan & his team!"

"We needed to remove old Popcorn Ceilings from our entire house. We also needed to remove wallpaper and paint one room. We got a few estimates from different businesses. â On The Job Paintingâ sâ price was on the medium to lower end but most of all, we were impressed with the owner, Keith. He responded to us right away and gave us an estimate. He seemed very informative and trustworthy. We decided to go with â On The Job Paintingâ and we couldnâ t be happier. The crew was on time and prepared everything really well. They cleaned up everyday and worked with us about what rooms to do to make our lives easier while we were still living in the house during this process. My wife and I would highly recommend this business to anyone. I would not hesitate to hire them again for my next project."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Yes, small, superficial cracks are normal as homes settle. Older homes have a higher chance of showing signs of settling through hairline cracks from temperature changes, moisture changes, and soil shifting. However, larger cracks, or discolored cracks from water damage, may signify a bigger problem that requires reparations and preventative measures.

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

The average cost to apply a skip-trowel drywall texture to walls is $1.25 to $2.00 per square foot. Ceilings cost slightly more because of the increased difficulty of working overhead. Additional cost factors include any drywall repairs and removal of existing textures or wallpaper.

Yes, any parts of drywall that are wet or overly moist will need to be replaced. Drywall is intended to be dry (it’s in the name, after all.), as excess moisture can lead to mold and mildew and eventually corrode your home’s foundational building pieces. Do regular inspections in your home to make sure all your plumbing is intact and in good condition—this will go a long way toward preventing leaks.

Technically speaking, you can use drywall primer over plasters. However, oil-based primers work the most effectively on wall plasters. Meanwhile, water-based primers work just as well with drywalls. Nowadays, there are also universal primers suitable for drywall and plaster. Overall, you will be fine as long as you are using a trustworthy brand.
